FEATURES OF Your Breville Professional 800 Collection® VARIABLE TEMPERATURE KETTLE

KEEP WARM FUNCTION

The Professional 800 Collection® Variable Temperature Kettle offers a convenient KEEP WARM function that can be used before, during or on completion of the water heating cycle. When the water has reached the selected Celsius temperature, the KEEP WARM function will hold the selected temperature for 20 minutes. If the 100° button is selected when using the KEEP WARM function, the boiled water will remain at approximately 95° Celsius for 20 minutes.

To activate the KEEP WARM function, first press the desired water temperature button from the five options on the control panel. Then press the KEEP WARM button, followed by the START/ CANCEL button to commence heating the water. Alternatively, the KEEP WARM button can be activated at any time during the heating cycle and/or within one minute after the heating cycle has completed.

If the kettle is removed from the power base during the KEEP WARM function the kettle will automatically switch off.

BREVILLE QUIET BOIL TECHNOLOGY

Your Breville Professional 800 Collection® Variable Temperature Kettle includes Quiet Boil Technology, a new development that will make heating water in the kettle a quieter experience.

Please carefully read the following instructions:

How it works

The innovative Quiet Boil Technology reduces the size of the air bubbles, minimising the noise level during heating. It is only at boiling point that a slight bubbling noise can be heard which will indicate that the water has completed heating.

To prevent scale from damaging your kettle, ensure that the kettle is de-scaled regularly

–refer to Care and Cleaning (Page 15). To avoid scale build-up, empty the kettle after use and do not allow water to stand in the kettle overnight.

VARIABLE TEMPERATURE CONTROL

The variable electronic control panel offers five different Celsius temperatures for optimal tea and coffee brewing: 80°, 85°, 90°, 95° and 100°.

Optimal Brewing

Tea varieties are grown and produced in different environments and require specific water temperatures to allow their unique flavour and aroma to develop during brewing. To bring out the optimal quality and taste of more delicate tea leaves, a lower temperature will produce a better flavoured cup of tea. For example, steeping green, white or oolong teas in boiling water

To bring out the optimal taste and quality of your favourite tea or coffee, we recommend that you use your Breville Professional 800 Collection® Variable Temperature Kettle at the suggested temperature for your selected tea or coffee.

The Variable Temperature Control Table on Page 11 provides a guide to a range of tea and coffee varieties and the recommended temperature to select on the control panel of the Professional 800 Collection® Variable Temperature Kettle.

Note: If temperature is changed during the KEEP WARM function, the START/CANCEL button surround will illuminate in red.

Maintaining the Quiet Boil Technology

Through regular use over time, scale build-up in the kettle can affect the performance of the Quiet Boil Technology as well as the life of the kettle. Lime and phosphate are common forms of scale that can damage your kettle. Lime scale, a harmless mineral, comes in the appearance of white-coloured or rusty- looking build up on the inner walls of the kettle. Phosphate scale can’t be seen, however, it can cause the water to appear cloudy when heated.

may scald the tea leaves and result in a bitter, astringent brew.

Brewing the tea for too long may also result in a bitter, unpleasant taste, while brewing for too short a period may leave the tea bland. For best results always follow the specific directions on the tea/coffee packet.
